Changing legend order with php mapscript

[Ben Madin]

G'day all,

I have an application where the country layer (+/- admin boundaries)  
are drawn in last (so they overlay population density data). This  
means it is at the top of the legend.

The population densities are one layer (in a five step range  
(descending), ending with 0 (ie no animals) or no data (no record in  
the db)) , so "Country borders" (in one of three languages) intrudes  
some way across the map picture, about the middle of the map when the  
initial thumbnail for the users to click on to move to an interactive  
interface is presented.

(see picture, say "yuk"!, offer solution!)


I would like the Country boundaries legend item to be at the bottom  
of the legend... I note there is a movestyledown function, but I am  
not clear on where this might be used.

Does anyone :

a) know if this function will do what I am looking for, or will it  
move the entire style down, obscuring the data behind the filled  
polygon?

b) have any code examples of how this might be (or where it has been)  
used?

cheers

Ben
